Yep I’m way ahead of the Christmas Q4 season. Or too late I guess whichever way you look at it. Only available in my shop for Christmas 2024 season! This idea for a Christmas card/print series popped in my head only a week ago. Not in the Christmas spirit as much as refining my drawing/inking skills. And boy was it refreshing! It took my mind away from depression and anxiety and sadness. My inspiration came from my sister’s pack of chihuahuas (currently painting her a portrait) , black and white minimalism, starry nights, nature, funny cats and, Charlie Brown and Linus Christmas tree shopping around the silly trees on the tree lot. My fave scene.
I plan to offer these as prints. Nøt printables as I’m feeling more like digital downloads cheapen my art and also customers prefer a physical product!!! So do I. Nothing beats touching the cool and funny and unique item!
My new 2024 word is P O L I S H. Slow down with your art. Choose your flow. Do not rush. And look at the silly results from drawing and inking. Still don’t forget to be free and loose and a bit sloppy abstract. Imperfect design is fine. Go here to peek at funny dog and cat gifts-https://puppycatandmouse.etsy.com/
